Tome of Battle: Bo9S classes in actual play?

[Elemental]

Okay, is everyone else reading the text of the Adaptive style that I am reading? I have seen multiple references to using it for getting all of your spent maneuvers back as a full-round action.

What I am seeing is: "You can change your readied maneuvers at any time by taking a full round action. If you're a crusader, your current granted maneuvers are lost and you gain new granted maneuvers as if you had just readied your maneuvers for the day."

But I know I have seen people talking about using Adaptive Style to regen all maneuvers for their SWORDSAGE. Thoughts? Am I just interpreting this incorrectly?

I'd rule it doesn't, because it hugely escalates the power of the feat, to the point where a swordsage would need an awesome reason to not take it. The original benefit (take a round out to gain a set of manouveres ideal for this fight) seemed more in line for a single feat.

Go with whatever seems best for your game.

Yup. It's the Swordsage's version of Natural Spell.

Yah. The wording seems to me that you'd get to switch out the maneuvers readied, but I don't see why it would ignore that you'd expended x maneuvers already.
